20 Oct 2008Deportivo B continues to live without victories in Segunda Divisi??n B. This time it was facing Racing Santander B at Abegondo and as it would happen with the first teams of these clubs, the game ended scoreless.

19 Oct 2008Third goalless draw for Depor after seven matchdays in la liga. Once again the Galicians return from El Sardinero with a positive result, although this time the game practiced over the grass was very boring.

13 Oct 2008A gray and innocent Deportivo B continued with its punishment during the present season as it lost the fifth game after eight matchdays.
